Urban Company IPO: Analysts’ Recommendations
Brokerages are divided on Urban Company’s upcoming IPO, with most recommending a subscription, though views vary on the time horizon and risk appetite.
Anand Rathi Shares & Stock Brokers has given a ‘subscribe for long-term’ tag, citing strong network effects and a trusted brand. “It is valuing at P/E of 65.7 times to its FY25 earnings with P/S of 12.9 times and market cap of Rs 14,789.5 crore. We believe that the IPO is fully priced and recommend a ‘subscribe for long term’ tag,” it said.
BP Equities and Sushil Finance are also positive, both giving a straight ‘subscribe’ rating. BP Equities said the company’s leadership, improving financials, and long growth runway make the IPO attractive for medium to long-term investors, while Sushil Finance called it an opportunity to participate in India’s dynamic gig economy.
ICICIDirect has taken a cautious stance with a ‘neutral’ rating, noting that while Urban Company is a unique player in the home services space, the IPO valuation of 11.4 times FY25 EV/Sales is “largely in line with other new age platform companies.” It said optimum use of its employee strength would aid operating leverage and long-term profitability.
Lakshmishree Investment & Securities was more cautious, recommending ‘subscribe with risk’. It said the valuation assumes continued high growth and margin expansion, leaving little room for a near-term re-rating. “Risk-tolerant investors seeking exposure to the rapidly growing home services sector [should] subscribe… but only with a long-term period,” it advised.
KR Choksey Finserv, on the other hand, has given a clear ‘subscribe’ call, highlighting that the company has serviced 14.6 million customers to date, with annual transacting users growing at a 17.3% CAGR. “We believe the company is well-positioned to capitalize on the growth driven by expanding consumer segments and shifting preferences towards higher spends on experiences,” it said.
Canara Bank Securities echoed this optimism with a ‘subscribe’ rating, pointing to Urban Company’s transformation into a profitable, cash-flow positive enterprise. “Its growth strategy is anchored in its India Consumer Services segment, with prudent international expansion and product diversification enhancing long-term potential,” it noted.
Ventura Securities also backed the issue with a ‘subscribe (risk)’ view, noting that Urban Company has turned profitable with a Q1FY26 profit of Rs 6.94 crore. “Its ability to innovate products and services… further strengthens its competitive positioning. However, these strengths are accompanied by notable risks,” it cautioned.
SBI Securities has recommended subscribing with a long-term view, citing strong revenue and NTV growth. “Profitability is on an improving trend and is expected to breakeven at the EBITDA level in FY26E,” it said.

Indian Railways has reached a global milestone in freight operations, securing its position as a premier international logistics hub. Union Minister for Railways, Ashwini Vaishnaw, announced today that the national carrier has achieved an unprecedented scale in its logistics division. Highlighting this achievement, the Minister stated, “Indian Railways has become the second-largest cargo carrier in the world.”
Building on this momentum, the Ministry has prepared a rigorous roadmap for the upcoming year aimed at systemic transformation. The government plans to roll out a series of weekly initiatives to modernise every facet of rail travel and transport. Vaishnaw explained the structured timeline, saying, “For 2026, Railways has resolved to implement 52 reforms in 52 weeks.”
The initial phase of this plan will prioritise the passenger experience, with a focus on improving the quality of onboard facilities. The Minister identified the primary starting point for this year-long agenda, noting, “The first reform is better onboard services in Railways.”
In addition to passenger amenities, the government is placing strong emphasis on the “Gati Shakti” initiative to streamline the nationwide movement of goods. This strategic focus is designed to strengthen the country’s supply chain. Vaishnaw confirmed the freight sector’s priority, adding, “The second concerns ‘Gati Shakti Cargo.’”
A cornerstone of the 2026 agenda is a comprehensive overhaul of sanitation and hygiene standards. The Ministry has developed a new blueprint to ensure that the rail network’s cleanliness meets global benchmarks. Detailing the specifics of the first major initiative, the Minister remarked, “Reform number one for 2026 will ensure proper end-to-end cleaning of the Railways… The concept of a clean rail station has been established.”
This cleanliness drive is not a short-term measure but a multi-year commitment to cover the entire Indian Railways fleet. The implementation will be phased to ensure thoroughness and consistency. Vaishnaw clarified the timeline, stating, “Over three years, this reform will be implemented across all trains.”
To ensure the success of these reforms, the Ministry is introducing a robust accountability framework. These measures will include performance-based contracts and the integration of modern digital tools to monitor progress in real time. Emphasising the shift towards professional and technology-driven management, the Minister concluded, “There will be clearly defined service-level agreements… There will be extensive use of technology.”
Craft beer brand BrewDog could be sold off after the company started the process to find new investors.
The Scottish beer brand recently announced plans to close all of its distilling brands, meaning it would no longer produce any of its spirits, including Duo Rum, Abstrakt Vodka, and Lonewolf Gin, at its distillery in Ellon, Aberdeenshire.
The company, which was founded in 2007, said it made the decision to focus on its beer brands, including the highly-popular Punk IPA, Elvis Juice, and Hazy Jane.
Now, in a statement, a spokesperson for BrewDog said the company had appointed Alix Partners to “support a structured and competitive process to evaluate the next phase of investment for the business.”
The statement said: “As with many businesses operating in a challenging economic climate and facing sustained macro headwinds, we regularly review our options with a focus on the long-term strength and sustainability of the company.
“Following a year of decisive action in 2025, which saw a focus on costs and operating efficiencies, we have appointed AlixPartners to support a structured and competitive process to evaluate the next phase of investment for the business. This is a deliberate and disciplined step with a focus on strengthening the long-term future of the BrewDog brand and its operations.”
Although no decisions have been made, a sale is under consideration.
In a statment BrewDog added: “BrewDog remains a global pioneer in craft beer: a world-class consumer brand, the No.1 independent brewer in the UK, and with a highly engaged global community. We believe that this combination will attract substantial interest, though no final decisions have been made.”
According to reports by Sky News, AlixPartners had begun sounding out prospective buyers in the last few days.
The company, which has 72 bars worldwide and four breweries in Scotland, the US, Australia, and Germany, said its breweries, bars, and venues will continue to operate as normal. It employs 1400 people across the organisation.
BrewDog’s founders James Watt and Martin Dickie are the company’s major shareholders alongside private equity company TSG, which invested £213 million in 2017, making it a 21 per cent shareholder.
In 2024, the beer brand grossed £357 million in sales, and it is a major independent brewer with 4 per cent market share in the UK grocery market.
